Record anti-corruption enforcement. The Economic and Financial Crimes Commission secured 7,503 convictions in the first two years of the administration — the highest in the agency’s 22-year history — and recovered over ₦566 billion in assets alongside $411 million in foreign currency. In 2024 alone, 4,111 convictions were recorded, surpassing any single year on record. Recovered funds have been reinvested into the Student Loan and Consumer Credit schemes.

Fiscal transparency strengthened. Ways and Means financing has been discontinued. The Auditor-General’s office is being equipped with digital tools. All government transactions are moving to traceable payment systems. A new national fiscal policy framework — covering taxation, borrowing, and expenditure discipline — is now in place. A Tax Ombudsman is being established to protect taxpayers and ensure the system is applied fairly.

Local government autonomy secured. In July 2024, the Supreme Court — acting on a suit brought by the federal government — delivered a landmark ruling granting Nigeria’s 774 local government areas direct access to their federal allocations. Governors can no longer withhold or control funds constitutionally designated for local councils. Over ₦4.5 trillion has been disbursed to local governments since the ruling, and more than 30 states conducted council elections in response.

Budget discipline restored. The 2026 Budget — at ₦58.18 trillion, the largest in Nigeria’s history — comes with explicit accountability directives to the Finance Minister, Accountant-General, and Budget Office to ensure implementation matches appropriation. The President has been direct: “The greatest budget is not the one we announce. It is the one we deliver.”

Sovereignty ratings improving. Fitch upgraded Nigeria’s sovereign rating to B with a stable outlook. Moody’s raised its issuer rating to B3. Both cited improved economic governance, clearer policy direction, and greater institutional predictability as the basis for the upgrades.
